Backi-studentgroup have just landed back in the UK after the OACAC (Overseas Association for College Admission Counseling) Summer Conference in Boston, Massachusetts.
We would like to thank all organisers at Northeastern University and Bridget Herrera and the OACAC Board Members for the organisation, care and attention to detail that went into making this year’s conference such a special event.
Highlights of the event included the High School and College Fair (proudly sponsored by i-studentgroup), the lobster dinner held in the idyllic grounds of Babson College, the annual dodge ball tournament, and Saturday night at the New England Aquarium, set against the backdrop of Boston Harbour.
Our thanks is also extended to all the attendees who hosted educational sessions – the selection on offer was fantastic and covered such a range of topics across the international education spectrum.
We are already looking forward to next year’s conference; set to be hosted by the University of Calgary in Alberta, Canada.
Thank-you again to all those involved in the planning and execution of Bos10 – we hope you enjoyed it as much as we did.
If you attended the OACAC Summer Conference, please feel free to share your comments or experiences.
